Free Sofa Suite - Brown PU Leather

Gabi from Milford

I have a free Sofa Suite which includes a 3 seater and two armchairs available for free. They are all sturdy and comfy - the PU leather is flaked but has a shaby chic look and can be covered. Only reason I am getting rid is because I don't have room for them. Pick up from Milford

And second biggest criminals are humankind themselves....you, yes you reading this....the USERS of these destroyers of the atmosphere, the earths surface (nearly 2% of the earths surface is covered by TARMAC.) Yet, you cannot do anything without them? Henry Ford promoted LAZINESS. He promoted SPEED. He promoted GREED....NOT KNOWINGLY.....he was just a smart man with great ideas....i wonder what he would think if he could see what he has done.

Proposal: Uppingham Crescent, Hillcrest
Auckland Transport is proposing to install no-stopping yellow lines Uppingham Crescent after residents asked for access to be improved on this narrow road. The changes will result in the removal of 19 on-street parking spaces.
From AT: "We understand that removing car parking can be inconvenient. We have visited the street and carefully designed the layout of the yellow lines. By staggering the yellow lines on alternating sides of the street we are able to maximise parking and reduce the loss to 19 spaces. If we painted yellow lines along only one side of the street this would remove 30 parking spaces."

Consultation is open until Monday 5th July.
Have your say online here:

Or leave comments below and I will pass them on to AT.

The new tracks at Eskdale Reserve Network are now open, including the new entrance on Glenfield Road near the roundabout!
The tracks have been simplified and re-routed away from kauri trees. They are now smooth and step-free, although wheelchair users may need some assistance in places.
New entrance signage and directional signage within the park will be installed in the coming months.

Please stay on the tracks and use the new shoe-cleaning stations to help prevent kauri dieback entering the park. Bikes are able to use the new tracks (with caution around pedestrians), however the wheel-cleaning stations are still to come.

The Kaipatiki Local Board and Kaipātiki Project will be holding an official open day in the coming weeks, and there are a few feeder tracks that will be upgraded in the next stage of work, however the bulk of the tracks are now finished, so go check them out!

- Funded through the Natural Environment Targeted Rate and the Kaipātiki Local Board asset renewal work programme.
